How can I save my little Tom?
From Oppenheimer's deadly bomb?

ELEMENTAL > INSIDIOUS: THE RED DOOR & IJ: DIAL OF DESTINY this weekend?

[MrHardapple]

Some Pay-it-Forward monay will be added to the SoF number later I guess.

Pretty close race with MI7, who will be in lead next weekend with Mission losing all the IMAX screens?

Sound of Freedom increasing every single day W2W is reminding me of Elemental's south korea run lmao. If not for Barbenheimer it might have beaten its 20-day streak.

That is a bonkers bad fall for MI7 unless I'm missing something. Sheesh. I get runtime issues and it being a workday but its summer -65% is rough.

I don't think that's going to happen. Even though sound of freedom is counter programming to Barbie I don't see how mission Impossible falls that hard this weekend.

Especially considering everything else is falling by around 55% or less

[MrHardapple]

MI7 is just too long for workdays.

SOF won't lose PLFs, plus when PIF figures get added on later it will probably be only 10% or so behind MI7 which is dropping like a normal movie. It will overtake it in dailies before the weekend even begins.

That is awful for MI7

Damn, on old people day, they almost got SoF over MI7...I expect MI7 to do better on discount day, but Wed forward should be interesting..

movie also had less action scenes compared to fallout one of the reasons why its underperforming in china and other asian countries

[narniadis]

Like to me, the Monday number is the first truly disappointing number. The rest have all been within my expectations (if a fraction low), but I firmly expected ~6.5m or so if not a tad higher. Just based on past behavior for the franchise and the demographics and type of film. 

Makes me uber curious what today does then.

I'm one of the biggest supporters of sound of freedom and yet even I think that you might be a bit too optimistic with it. This magical run that it's on is going to taper off one of these days. And by taper off I mean it might actually start behaving somewhat normally. If it doesn't take over Daily's by Wednesday it's not going to this week. It's going to be fun watching it for the rest of the summer but this week just because it's only a million behind right now I don't think that's going to give it enough to pass mission Impossible on the weekdays.
